Reviews (2)
The second season opens without hesitation, with the creators following exactly the same style as in the first one. It remains relatively faithful in terms of history, with an accurately captured atmosphere and precise performances. Plus peppered with the Suez conflict and, surprisingly for an otherwise sedentary dialogue series, quite an action-packed finale. ()
The first episode of the second season adequately continued the first season, the creators managed to successfully combine the politics of the Cold War period with the relationships in a somewhat unconventional family. Just like in the previous series, this episode also managed to maintain the atmosphere of the era and I enjoyed it. ()
